SearchSystems opened and checked the custody page of the Roberts County Sheriff's Office at robertsoncountysherifftx.org/inmate-roster/filters/current/booking_... (page title: Inmate Roster | Robertson County Texas Sheriff's Office | Sort Booking Time | Descending | Page 1), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on October 9, 2026.
That page is the place to look for someone booked recently. A person cited and released at the scene, or held only a few hours by a city department, will not be on it.
